Process

How a doors, windows & hardware visit goes.

  1. 1

    Measure and prep

    Measure the rough opening, remove the old door, check the frame for plumb and square.

  2. 2

    Set the door

    Shim plumb on both jambs, fasten through the shims, check the reveal at the head.

  3. 3

    Hardware

    Install hinges, lockset, deadbolt, weatherstripping. Adjust the strike plate so it latches without slamming.

  4. 4

    Trim and finish

    Caulk the gap to drywall, install or reinstall casing, prime ready for paint.

Frequently asked questions

Can you install an exterior door?
Yes for like-for-like pre-hung exterior doors, storm doors, and screen doors when the opening is sound. We shim, flash or seal as the product requires, weatherstrip, and confirm the hardware operates cleanly.
How long does a door replacement take?
An interior pre-hung door with trim takes about 2 hours. An exterior door can take 3–4 hours depending on the frame condition and whether the threshold needs to be rebuilt.
Do you handle full-house window replacement?
No. Whole-house window replacement goes to a dedicated window contractor. We keep this scope to a single sash, screen, glazing, hardware, or small repair where the surrounding opening is sound.
Can you match my existing trim profile?
Usually. Most homes use standard profiles still stocked at the mill or big-box. If yours is a custom profile, we'll get a millwork quote.
My door sticks in summer. Can you fix it?
Yes. Most sticking doors come from house settling or humidity-swollen jambs. We plane the high spots, adjust the hinges, and shim the strike plate. About a 90-minute job.
Can you rekey my locks?
No. Rekeying an existing lock goes directly to a licensed locksmith. We can replace a complete lockset or deadbolt when you want different hardware.
